<BR>
it is correct that the
mod_jk.conf will be overwriten if you start Tomcat.
The mod_jk.conf will be generated from the server.xml each time you start Tomcat. If your server configuration works fine copy the mod_jk.conf file including your rewrites to another location on the file system and change the corresponding line in the httpd.conf of your Apache.<BR>
<BR>
Please take care, each time you change the server.xml your mod_jk.conf file has to be change too.<BR>

Hi,<BR>
<BR>
I had the same problem and agree, that the posted pdf of al-arenal.de<BR>
doesen=B4t work proper.<BR>
<BR>
I did the following steps to solve the problem (LINUX):<BR>
<BR>
1) I installed the apache2 web-server and configured apache with =<BR>
mod_rewrite<BR>
and mod_proxy:<BR>
# ./configure --prefix=3D/<dir>/apache2 \<BR>
--enable-rewrite --enable-rewrite=3Dshared \<BR>
--enable-proxy --enable-proxy=3Dshared \<BR>
--enable-ssl ----enable-ssl=3Dshared<BR>
<BR>
2) I installed the mod_jk.so too that Apache connect to Tomcat and use<BR>
Tomcat like a servlet runner. Here is a tutorial I used:<BR>
http://www.galatea.com/flashguides/apache-tomcat-24-unix.xml<BR>
<BR>
3) After this I edit the ./<tomcatdir>/conf/server.xml and defined the<BR>
virtual domains (<hosts>) i need. Take care, that Tomcat starts normal =<BR>
on<BR>
port 8080.<BR>
<BR>
4) If you start Tomcat, a file called =<BR>
"./<tomcatdir>/conf/auto/mod_jk.conf"<BR>
(the file is included by httpd.conf - see tutorial before) will be<BR>
automaticly created from the source file ./server.xml. Edit<BR>
"./<tomcatdir>/conf/auto/mod_jk.conf", skip to the first domain an =<BR>
include<BR>
following apache rewrite statement:<BR>
RewriteEngine on<BR>
RewriteLog "/<directory>/rewrite.log<BR>
RewriteLogLevel 1<BR>
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /opencms/opencms/$1 [PT]<BR>
<BR>
With this statement you create an Apache PassThru and the =<BR>
"/opencms/opencms"<BR>
should be rid off.<BR>
<BR>
I hope this is helpful!<BR>
